Not only winless, but man, they 80 00:03:46,600 --> 00:03:50,520 Speaker 2: were just struggling, you know, numbers wise, struggling to even 81 00:03:50,520 --> 00:03:53,520 Speaker 2: score points a couple of those years, you know, going 82 00:03:53,560 --> 00:03:57,760 Speaker 2: back to twenty twenty, nineteen twenty twenty, and then you know, 83 00:03:57,800 --> 00:03:59,600 Speaker 2: I've kind of made some strides here in the last 84 00:03:59,600 --> 00:04:02,440 Speaker 2: couple of year years. So but yeah, it's been a 85 00:04:02,440 --> 00:04:04,960 Speaker 2: good season for them. So yeah, I'm a little different. 86 00:04:05,160 --> 00:04:07,800 Speaker 2: We'll have a hopefully a story in the morning that'll 87 00:04:07,800 --> 00:04:08,600 Speaker 2: be a little bit different. 88 00:04:08,640 --> 00:04:10,360 Speaker 1: So when you say a little bit different, can you 89 00:04:10,440 --> 00:04:13,440 Speaker 1: give us an indication as to what angle we're talking here, 90 00:04:13,480 --> 00:04:16,360 Speaker 1: because I do know this about Shelbyville, you know, I've 91 00:04:16,400 --> 00:04:18,200 Speaker 1: mentioned before I lived in Shelbyville when I was a 92 00:04:18,200 --> 00:04:21,680 Speaker 1: little kid. But I spent a lot of time in Shelbyville. 93 00:04:21,839 --> 00:04:23,840 Speaker 1: I know of that community and some of the challenges 94 00:04:23,880 --> 00:04:27,000 Speaker 1: that it's had, certainly athletically for the Golden Bears. But 95 00:04:27,000 --> 00:04:30,479 Speaker 1: but I'm getting the impression here that you're indicating that 96 00:04:30,520 --> 00:04:32,880 Speaker 1: it's going to be above and beyond just a football 97 00:04:33,040 --> 00:04:33,960 Speaker 1: x's and o's story. 98 00:04:34,839 --> 00:04:37,239 Speaker 2: Yeah, and actually it's on the other side.

And 171 00:08:26,000 --> 00:08:29,760 Speaker 2: also kind of you know, like I said, this, Donelle Rogers' teacher, 172 00:08:29,800 --> 00:08:32,000 Speaker 2: who's you know, I think she said she's fifty years old, 173 00:08:32,040 --> 00:08:34,600 Speaker 2: but she ended up donating a kidney, you know, became 174 00:08:34,720 --> 00:08:38,400 Speaker 2: a you know, real advocate obviously for him and for 175 00:08:39,200 --> 00:08:41,920 Speaker 2: you know, kidney transplants, and it's just kind of a 176 00:08:42,440 --> 00:08:44,400 Speaker 2: kind of a neat thing was able to you never know, 177 00:08:44,559 --> 00:08:47,040 Speaker 2: you know, kind of in this people you meet and 178 00:08:47,160 --> 00:08:49,559 Speaker 2: things that you know, but it's kind of inspiring or 179 00:08:49,679 --> 00:08:52,880 Speaker 2: just not kind of definitely inspiring for me to meet 180 00:08:52,880 --> 00:08:54,439 Speaker 2: people like this and be able to kind of tell 181 00:08:54,480 --> 00:08:58,560 Speaker 2: their stories. But when you mentioned that angle on a 182 00:08:58,640 --> 00:09:01,960 Speaker 2: kid who's inspiring, I mean I would definitely say, you know, 183 00:09:02,080 --> 00:09:03,600 Speaker 2: Jackson's right at the top of that list. 184 00:09:03,679 --> 00:09:03,840 Speaker 3: You know. 185 00:09:04,000 --> 00:09:08,080 Speaker 1: I mentioned that story, Kyle, because I was aware of 186 00:09:08,080 --> 00:09:10,560 Speaker 1: it from the donor side because of Indiana, you know, 187 00:09:10,600 --> 00:09:13,400 Speaker 1: the Indiana Donor Network and Driven to Save Lives, which 188 00:09:13,440 --> 00:09:15,280 Speaker 1: we've done a lot of work with here, great people. 189 00:09:15,440 --> 00:09:17,800 Speaker 1: I've had the privilege of being able to go and see, 190 00:09:18,640 --> 00:09:23,640 Speaker 1: you know, just the overall tour through you know, both 191 00:09:23,720 --> 00:09:26,320 Speaker 1: sides of the organ donation, by going through the Indiana 192 00:09:26,360 --> 00:09:28,920 Speaker 1: Donor Network and seeing their facility in the Northwest side 193 00:09:28,920 --> 00:09:32,160 Speaker 1: and then getting to know you know, Danny, who is 194 00:09:32,400 --> 00:09:35,400 Speaker 1: a kidney recipient that has become a strong advocate through 195 00:09:35,480 --> 00:09:39,400 Speaker 1: Brian Clausen in the different sides of organ donation, and 196 00:09:40,320 --> 00:09:42,880 Speaker 1: that that story for that reason struck a chord with 197 00:09:42,960 --> 00:09:47,160 Speaker 1: me because I think that the the angle of the 198 00:09:47,240 --> 00:09:51,800 Speaker 1: stranger potentially helping stranger with it, and also knowing that 199 00:09:52,440 --> 00:09:55,280 Speaker 1: there is no age limit for organ donation or organ 200 00:09:55,520 --> 00:09:57,840 Speaker 1: you know, obviously being on the receiving end as well. 201 00:09:58,400 --> 00:09:59,640 Speaker 1: I want to commend you because I thought it was 202 00:09:59,640 --> 00:10:01,600 Speaker 1: a really important story to get out there, and I 203 00:10:01,600 --> 00:10:05,080 Speaker 1: thought your pinned did an excellent job of voicing that 204 00:10:05,240 --> 00:10:08,040 Speaker 1: story and the triumph of it too in the Indiana 205 00:10:08,120 --> 00:10:11,520 Speaker 1: under Network, who I'm a strong believer in, very much 206 00:10:11,679 --> 00:10:15,079 Speaker 1: appreciated in terms of the football side of things for tonight. 207 00:10:15,080 --> 00:10:17,400 Speaker 1: One of the games to me intriguing Cathedral and Warren. 208 00:10:17,920 --> 00:10:20,040 Speaker 1: I think Cathedral when you look at record, Kyle, and 209 00:10:20,040 --> 00:10:23,079 Speaker 1: we've talked about it, you might look at Cathedral's record 210 00:10:23,120 --> 00:10:24,720 Speaker 1: and think that it's I'm not going to say a 211 00:10:24,760 --> 00:10:27,280 Speaker 1: down year for Cathedral, but not a typical Cathedral year. 212 00:10:27,480 --> 00:10:31,480 Speaker 1: But I think that's misleading because their schedule has they 213 00:10:31,480 --> 00:10:34,120 Speaker 1: have not been afraid to challenge themselves. We've talked about 214 00:10:34,160 --> 00:10:36,680 Speaker 1: that in the past. What do we look for tonight 215 00:10:36,720 --> 00:10:37,200 Speaker 1: with Warren? 216 00:10:38,640 --> 00:10:41,720 Speaker 2: Yeah, I definitely agree with you, and yeah, and thanks 217 00:10:41,760 --> 00:10:45,880 Speaker 2: for saying that about Jackson in that story by the way, too. 218 00:10:45,960 --> 00:10:49,400 Speaker 2: But I would say, you know, Cathedral in Warren. I 219 00:10:49,400 --> 00:10:51,520 Speaker 2: think both are probably better than their five and three 220 00:10:51,559 --> 00:10:54,559 Speaker 2: records indicate, you know, and I think that'll be a 221 00:10:54,600 --> 00:10:57,080 Speaker 2: really interesting game. These teams played last year in a 222 00:10:57,080 --> 00:11:01,560 Speaker 2: close game. Warren won that game, but both battling some injuries. 223 00:11:01,600 --> 00:11:03,480 Speaker 2: I don't expect key On Thomas will play to night 224 00:11:03,520 --> 00:11:06,320 Speaker 2: for Warren. You know, Cathedral has been battling some injuries 225 00:11:06,720 --> 00:11:09,319 Speaker 2: at some key spots as well, But it should be 226 00:11:09,360 --> 00:11:13,400 Speaker 2: a great game. And and I think Cathedral definitely will 227 00:11:13,559 --> 00:11:16,280 Speaker 2: will be a challenger for newpal in the sectional down 228 00:11:16,320 --> 00:11:18,760 Speaker 2: the road at Center Girl. Bloomington South is super interesting 229 00:11:18,800 --> 00:11:21,800 Speaker 2: to me too. These teams haven't played against each other 230 00:11:21,840 --> 00:11:24,600 Speaker 2: in a long time, but but you know, from a 231 00:11:24,600 --> 00:11:27,840 Speaker 2: five A verse six A, South is very good this year, 232 00:11:27,920 --> 00:11:30,720 Speaker 2: so we'll kind of see where they're at from a 233 00:11:30,720 --> 00:11:33,920 Speaker 2: standpoint of can they challenge in the five A tournament. 234 00:11:34,040 --> 00:11:36,760 Speaker 2: That's a good indicator. East Central ron Colly also, I 235 00:11:36,760 --> 00:11:39,880 Speaker 2: think is a great game. East Central's highly ranked in 236 00:11:39,920 --> 00:11:40,240 Speaker 2: five A. 237 00:11:40,360 --> 00:11:41,120 Speaker 1: They're typically a. 238 00:11:41,120 --> 00:11:44,480 Speaker 2: Four A team, but playing up because a success factor 239 00:11:44,480 --> 00:11:47,320 Speaker 2: in ron Colly, of course, you know, highly ranked in 240 00:11:47,640 --> 00:11:50,400 Speaker 2: class four A as well, So I think that's an 241 00:11:50,400 --> 00:11:53,199 Speaker 2: interesting game. That's been a really good rivalry game, close 242 00:11:53,240 --> 00:11:56,679 Speaker 2: games over the years. Cascade as eight. No, they're at 243 00:11:56,679 --> 00:11:59,679 Speaker 2: Western Boon. That'll be a good one. HSC plays Brownsburg. 244 00:11:59,720 --> 00:12:02,200 Speaker 2: Glass seemed to beat Brownsburg was HC last year this 245 00:12:02,360 --> 00:12:05,760 Speaker 2: same week, so otherwise Brownsburg I think would have what 246 00:12:05,800 --> 00:12:08,640 Speaker 2: a twenty one game winning streak if not for that game. 247 00:12:08,720 --> 00:12:11,240 Speaker 2: So I think that'll be an interesting game to watch 248 00:12:11,280 --> 00:12:14,679 Speaker 2: as well. But yeah, several good games. I think should 249 00:12:14,720 --> 00:12:17,000 Speaker 2: be great weather again tonight like we've had all season 250 00:12:17,040 --> 00:12:19,960 Speaker 2: on Friday, and knock on wood hopefully that continues. 251 00:12:20,240 --> 00:12:22,840 Speaker 1: And you mentioned New Pal by the way, and I've 252 00:12:22,880 --> 00:12:25,920 Speaker 1: talked to people about New Pal and just there you know, 253 00:12:25,960 --> 00:12:28,480 Speaker 1: they are such an offensive juggernaut, Kyle, But I think 254 00:12:28,480 --> 00:12:31,640 Speaker 1: it New Pal is just the classic example of what 255 00:12:31,679 --> 00:12:33,880 Speaker 1: can happen when you get kids to buy into a 256 00:12:33,920 --> 00:12:37,280 Speaker 1: program at a young age, get into the wait program 257 00:12:37,320 --> 00:12:41,040 Speaker 1: and everything else. And when you're watchingow New Pal play football, 258 00:12:41,080 --> 00:12:44,480 Speaker 1: you're watching kids that have known since they were probably fourth, fifth, 259 00:12:44,600 --> 00:12:47,920 Speaker 1: sixth grade exactly what they needed to do to represent 260 00:12:47,960 --> 00:12:48,559 Speaker 1: that high school. 261 00:12:48,600 --> 00:12:48,720 Speaker 3: Right. 262 00:12:48,760 --> 00:12:50,120 Speaker 1: I mean, that is a juggernaut. 263 00:12:50,640 --> 00:12:52,680 Speaker 2: It is, Yeah, and it's been fun to watch, you know, 264 00:12:52,760 --> 00:12:54,800 Speaker 2: I was kind of when Kyler Ralph first got there. 265 00:12:55,640 --> 00:12:57,720 Speaker 2: I still remember first meeting him his first year, and 266 00:12:57,760 --> 00:13:00,120 Speaker 2: there's you know, it was just like, you know, there 267 00:13:00,200 --> 00:13:03,240 Speaker 2: was something about him that was you know, it's not 268 00:13:03,320 --> 00:13:06,360 Speaker 2: necessarily the you know, it's just the work they put in, 269 00:13:06,679 --> 00:13:09,199 Speaker 2: like you mentioned, and they were a real advocate of 270 00:13:09,280 --> 00:13:11,760 Speaker 2: weight room and getting in there and and not really 271 00:13:11,800 --> 00:13:14,080 Speaker 2: just football but all sports. And he's a big part 272 00:13:14,080 --> 00:13:16,480 Speaker 2: of that. But but yeah, to look at where they 273 00:13:16,520 --> 00:13:18,760 Speaker 2: were then, and they were really good even his first year, 274 00:13:18,840 --> 00:13:22,160 Speaker 2: but to go where they've gone since he's been there, 275 00:13:22,200 --> 00:13:24,240 Speaker 2: and this is this you could argue this is their 276 00:13:24,280 --> 00:13:28,400 Speaker 2: most well rounded, deepest team that they've had, which is 277 00:13:28,440 --> 00:13:31,560 Speaker 2: really saying something considering all the great teams he's had there. 278 00:13:31,600 --> 00:13:34,080 Speaker 2: But I guess the you know, the next few weeks 279 00:13:34,120 --> 00:13:36,320 Speaker 2: will bear that out, how they're remembered, if they if 280 00:13:36,320 --> 00:13:39,320 Speaker 2: they go on and win it or not. But but 281 00:13:39,480 --> 00:13:43,880 Speaker 2: I can't imagine there's been many more dominant seasons really 282 00:13:43,920 --> 00:13:46,320 Speaker 2: in the history of high school football than what Newpals 283 00:13:46,360 --> 00:13:46,920 Speaker 2: had this year. 284 00:13:47,520 --> 00:13:52,360 Speaker 1: Kyle Nenritt will be out at Pendland Heights.

People don't realize that, but god, we stand 344 00:16:36,640 --> 00:16:39,080 Speaker 3: all right now, Jake. But anyway, you know, like you 345 00:16:39,080 --> 00:16:42,240 Speaker 3: would hear a song for maybe weeks, and all of 346 00:16:42,240 --> 00:16:44,360 Speaker 3: a sudden you would see the people singing on MTV 347 00:16:44,560 --> 00:16:46,800 Speaker 3: and that was your first visual who one of these people? 348 00:16:46,840 --> 00:16:50,160 Speaker 3: You didn't know? You know, maybe if you got you know, 349 00:16:51,000 --> 00:16:53,600 Speaker 3: one of the you know, magazines, but it was a 350 00:16:53,640 --> 00:16:56,680 Speaker 3: monthly magazine. And but then so it would be weeks 351 00:16:56,720 --> 00:17:00,400 Speaker 3: before you see who was singing a song. First time 352 00:17:00,440 --> 00:17:01,760 Speaker 3: seeing Kiss that was that. 353 00:17:01,840 --> 00:17:08,239 Speaker 1: Was sorry, yeah it was it was. Yeah, it was 354 00:17:08,280 --> 00:17:10,680 Speaker 1: not unlike the first time that like you saw the 355 00:17:11,200 --> 00:17:14,520 Speaker 1: uh the disclaimer on an HBO movie that said brief 356 00:17:14,560 --> 00:17:16,720 Speaker 1: nudity or strong sexual content. It was like, I think 357 00:17:16,760 --> 00:17:20,879 Speaker 1: something just changed here, right, like like this is this 358 00:17:21,040 --> 00:17:24,239 Speaker 1: is not? Yeah, something something's new here, Something's different. And 359 00:17:24,240 --> 00:17:26,399 Speaker 1: that was definitely the case. I'm telling you my sister. 360 00:17:26,640 --> 00:17:28,359 Speaker 1: I have an older sister. I mentioned it earlier. She 361 00:17:28,440 --> 00:17:30,680 Speaker 1: had the Kiss a Live two album and it had 362 00:17:30,680 --> 00:17:33,640 Speaker 1: the picture. It was a double album and in it 363 00:17:33,680 --> 00:17:36,359 Speaker 1: there was the pyrotechnics and Gene Simmons and the blood 364 00:17:36,400 --> 00:17:38,560 Speaker 1: coming out and the boots and I mean it was, 365 00:17:38,640 --> 00:17:40,959 Speaker 1: like I mentioned earlier, it was like the Flying Monkeys 366 00:17:40,960 --> 00:17:42,280 Speaker 1: and the Wizard of Ozz, Like, what in the world 367 00:17:42,280 --> 00:17:45,640 Speaker 1: are we doing here? I'm terrified. But the music was cool. 368 00:17:46,000 --> 00:17:50,600 Speaker 1: The music was cool. Hey, Jeff. Obviously, Indiana basketball it 369 00:17:50,720 --> 00:17:52,560 Speaker 1: is interesting and I'm not going to get into the 370 00:17:52,600 --> 00:17:55,040 Speaker 1: whole thing of like this Indiana now football school versus 371 00:17:55,040 --> 00:17:59,040 Speaker 1: basketball school. It's an athletic program that has, you know, 372 00:17:59,560 --> 00:18:02,720 Speaker 1: obvious one side of it. On the basketball side, which 373 00:18:02,760 --> 00:18:07,119 Speaker 1: has great fans support and enthusiasm, but at the same time, 374 00:18:07,840 --> 00:18:10,200 Speaker 1: I think there's a lot of curiosity as to what 375 00:18:10,240 --> 00:18:13,040 Speaker 1: we are going to see this year out of them. 376 00:18:13,440 --> 00:18:15,879 Speaker 1: The thing that is the most intriguing to you about 377 00:18:15,880 --> 00:18:18,919 Speaker 1: Indiana basketball now is they have an exhibition. Is it 378 00:18:18,920 --> 00:18:23,000 Speaker 1: tonight or tomorrow? I think it's tonight the exhibition, right, yeah, Okay. 379 00:18:23,040 --> 00:18:25,959 Speaker 1: So the thing that you will be looking for in 380 00:18:26,000 --> 00:18:28,639 Speaker 1: that or that maybe is of intrigue to you that 381 00:18:28,680 --> 00:18:30,600 Speaker 1: you were looking to either see if it does or 382 00:18:30,640 --> 00:18:33,600 Speaker 1: doesn't go a certain way, would be what shooting. 383 00:18:34,280 --> 00:18:39,520 Speaker 3: Shooting. They their roster was primarily about adding shooting, multiple guys, 384 00:18:39,520 --> 00:18:43,560 Speaker 3: a multiple physicians who can make threes. You know, we 385 00:18:43,640 --> 00:18:46,560 Speaker 3: watched them three games then in Puerto Rico they've been 386 00:18:46,600 --> 00:18:51,520 Speaker 3: open practices, so we've had, you know, multiple viewings now 387 00:18:52,040 --> 00:18:55,280 Speaker 3: and they're going to take threes and humphrees. So the 388 00:18:56,320 --> 00:19:02,679 Speaker 3: this game, the exhibitions tonight against Baylor at Gambridgefield House, 389 00:19:03,240 --> 00:19:07,359 Speaker 3: even even the games through November, I'm gonna be watching 390 00:19:07,400 --> 00:19:11,360 Speaker 3: shooting because this is a you know, a roster that 391 00:19:12,200 --> 00:19:14,240 Speaker 3: you know, they they weren't able to go get like 392 00:19:14,320 --> 00:19:17,320 Speaker 3: a traditional post player. They weren't able to get some 393 00:19:17,400 --> 00:19:21,960 Speaker 3: traditional things. But You've got guys like Read Bailey out there, 394 00:19:22,000 --> 00:19:25,240 Speaker 3: who's a center on paper. And there were times in 395 00:19:25,320 --> 00:19:28,800 Speaker 3: practice where like when quote the other team, you know, 396 00:19:28,880 --> 00:19:31,320 Speaker 3: not his team, but the other team, you know, scrimmage 397 00:19:31,600 --> 00:19:33,560 Speaker 3: makes a basket, they throw it into him. He's turning 398 00:19:33,560 --> 00:19:34,960 Speaker 3: around and bringing them off the court, and the other 399 00:19:35,000 --> 00:19:37,920 Speaker 3: center's going, oh crap, what do I do here? And 400 00:19:38,119 --> 00:19:41,399 Speaker 3: there were times that they had four guys on the 401 00:19:41,440 --> 00:19:44,360 Speaker 3: floor who had made a three, either in the game 402 00:19:44,359 --> 00:19:46,200 Speaker 3: that was being played we're talking about Puerto Rico, or 403 00:19:46,280 --> 00:19:49,720 Speaker 3: in the scrimmage of practice we watched, and Red Bailey 404 00:19:49,800 --> 00:19:51,760 Speaker 3: can make three. He just he just didn't at that 405 00:19:51,840 --> 00:19:55,359 Speaker 3: particular juncture. But to me, I think shooting is the 406 00:19:55,359 --> 00:19:58,840 Speaker 3: most interesting games. It's a modern style. It's just a 407 00:19:58,960 --> 00:20:03,480 Speaker 3: far more just It's just it's just a better brand 408 00:20:03,560 --> 00:20:07,200 Speaker 3: of basketball than I used played the last four six, 409 00:20:07,320 --> 00:20:09,800 Speaker 3: eight years. It's just a better brand of basketball. So 410 00:20:10,280 --> 00:20:12,639 Speaker 3: I don't think they're oldly talented. I think, you know, 411 00:20:12,720 --> 00:20:14,679 Speaker 3: Technic of Reason and Warner Wilkerson are probably the two 412 00:20:14,720 --> 00:20:16,960 Speaker 3: guys you look at first and say, Okay, who's gonna 413 00:20:16,960 --> 00:20:20,280 Speaker 3: go each points? Most night? Those guys are uh taking 414 00:20:20,280 --> 00:20:22,720 Speaker 3: Connorway at the point can be disruptive as a as 415 00:20:22,720 --> 00:20:26,000 Speaker 3: a defender on the ball. You know, Reed Bailey can 416 00:20:26,119 --> 00:20:30,040 Speaker 3: be a mismatch guy. Uh. Trent Sisley, Uh from from 417 00:20:30,040 --> 00:20:33,679 Speaker 3: Heritage Hills down there in the southern part of our state. Uh. 418 00:20:33,960 --> 00:20:36,080 Speaker 3: You know he he's really battling for minutes. But I think, 419 00:20:36,080 --> 00:20:38,600 Speaker 3: to me, the number one thing you think about when 420 00:20:38,640 --> 00:20:40,719 Speaker 3: you look at this roster, when you watch them play, 421 00:20:41,080 --> 00:20:44,040 Speaker 3: when you watch them practice, it's just a shooting. They've 422 00:20:44,080 --> 00:20:47,240 Speaker 3: got multiple guys who can actually make threes. And I 423 00:20:47,280 --> 00:20:48,680 Speaker 3: asked darn to Reese about it. We were up in 424 00:20:48,760 --> 00:20:51,760 Speaker 3: Chicago media Day last week and I just asked him, 425 00:20:51,760 --> 00:20:54,880 Speaker 3: I said, what what what? What's like? I said something about, 426 00:20:54,960 --> 00:20:57,200 Speaker 3: what's one of the most important things for your team 427 00:20:57,200 --> 00:20:57,720 Speaker 3: to do well? 428 00:20:58,000 --> 00:20:58,080 Speaker 1: Now? 429 00:20:58,160 --> 00:21:01,520 Speaker 3: He said, shooting, shooting, and more shooting. And he said, 430 00:21:01,520 --> 00:21:03,520 Speaker 3: we love taking the three, we love hunting the three. 431 00:21:03,800 --> 00:21:07,120 Speaker 3: We're gonna recruit guys you can make threes. And so yeah, 432 00:21:07,200 --> 00:21:09,320 Speaker 3: to me, number one thing I'm looking for here the 433 00:21:09,440 --> 00:21:12,200 Speaker 3: first few weeks, how do they shit the ball? 434 00:21:12,480 --> 00:21:15,960 Speaker 1: Okay, lastly, and this is probably the most important Robby Okay, 435 00:21:16,040 --> 00:21:20,399 Speaker 1: I'm taking out Michael Jackson's thriller and I'm taking out 436 00:21:21,560 --> 00:21:23,719 Speaker 1: Money for Nothing by Dire Straits, because those are the 437 00:21:23,800 --> 00:21:26,560 Speaker 1: obvious answers. I know that you are a fan of Prince. 438 00:21:26,600 --> 00:21:29,119 Speaker 1: I still have your album for you. But when you 439 00:21:29,200 --> 00:21:33,680 Speaker 1: think about early young first years of MTV introduction to 440 00:21:33,760 --> 00:21:36,320 Speaker 1: Jeff rab John's give me the two or three songs 441 00:21:36,359 --> 00:21:38,320 Speaker 1: or music videos that jump out in your mind? 442 00:21:40,240 --> 00:21:48,760 Speaker 3: Oh man, yeah, okay, let's see you.

Kevin joins us now on 506 00:24:47,760 --> 00:24:49,640 Speaker 1: the program. He has been out at West fifty sixth 507 00:24:49,640 --> 00:24:52,800 Speaker 1: Street at the Colts Complex, and Kevin I mentioned it earlier. 508 00:24:52,840 --> 00:24:55,800 Speaker 1: But for those that may not have heard, please update 509 00:24:55,880 --> 00:24:58,560 Speaker 1: us on who Shane Steiken says will be in and 510 00:24:58,640 --> 00:25:01,280 Speaker 1: who will be out for the game in Los Angeles 511 00:25:01,280 --> 00:25:01,840 Speaker 1: on Sunday. 512 00:25:02,960 --> 00:25:06,359 Speaker 4: Yes, so Tavaris War Josh Downs, the two guys in 513 00:25:06,400 --> 00:25:09,800 Speaker 4: concussion protocol, will both be out, and then Ashton Doolan 514 00:25:10,040 --> 00:25:14,960 Speaker 4: chest injury for him, he will be out. Does sound 515 00:25:15,040 --> 00:25:17,879 Speaker 4: like Kenny Moore, the second will play. Now he only practiced. 516 00:25:17,920 --> 00:25:20,600 Speaker 4: He wasn't practicing today, so he's only practiced two limited 517 00:25:20,680 --> 00:25:24,600 Speaker 4: days since he got hurt three weeks ago, so I'd 518 00:25:24,680 --> 00:25:28,440 Speaker 4: be curious how much he will play. But it does 519 00:25:28,560 --> 00:25:30,440 Speaker 4: sound like the plan is at least for Kenny Moore 520 00:25:30,440 --> 00:25:30,919 Speaker 4: to give it a go. 521 00:25:31,359 --> 00:25:34,200 Speaker 1: And in addition to that, in terms of curious how 522 00:25:34,280 --> 00:25:37,399 Speaker 1: much he will play, Kevin I put Adie Mitchell in 523 00:25:37,440 --> 00:25:40,800 Speaker 1: that same category because there's going to be necessity to 524 00:25:40,800 --> 00:25:44,160 Speaker 1: call his number. But he also has been in the doghouse, 525 00:25:44,240 --> 00:25:48,119 Speaker 1: no question about that. Shane Stikeen did elaborate a little 526 00:25:48,160 --> 00:25:50,760 Speaker 1: on that, correct. Yeah, so Ad. 527 00:25:50,760 --> 00:25:54,080 Speaker 4: Will dress and will play, which is obviously a change 528 00:25:54,119 --> 00:25:57,280 Speaker 4: from well, certainly last week and I think pretty much 529 00:25:57,320 --> 00:25:59,399 Speaker 4: the Raiders game where he didn't play meaningful snaps of 530 00:25:59,440 --> 00:26:01,880 Speaker 4: the fourth core. But you know, how do they replace downs? 531 00:26:01,960 --> 00:26:03,480 Speaker 4: You know, when you look at it last year, Jake, 532 00:26:03,840 --> 00:26:06,600 Speaker 4: it was mainly Mitchell and then a little bit of douling. 533 00:26:06,760 --> 00:26:09,720 Speaker 4: Well what's happened since then? Mitchell has proven to continue 534 00:26:09,760 --> 00:26:13,600 Speaker 4: to be not very reliable and now doing is out, 535 00:26:13,880 --> 00:26:15,800 Speaker 4: So you know, how do you do it? Certainly, Tyler 536 00:26:15,840 --> 00:26:19,119 Speaker 4: Warren's presence I think alleviate some of it. You know, 537 00:26:19,160 --> 00:26:21,720 Speaker 4: I thought Anthony Gould had a really nice training camp, 538 00:26:22,400 --> 00:26:25,120 Speaker 4: and he's more in that slot role. You know, he's 539 00:26:25,160 --> 00:26:27,080 Speaker 4: only really been a return man. I don't even know 540 00:26:27,119 --> 00:26:29,560 Speaker 4: if he's played an offensive snap of the NFL, so, 541 00:26:30,240 --> 00:26:32,680 Speaker 4: you know, body type wise, kind of what he did 542 00:26:32,680 --> 00:26:36,360 Speaker 4: a little bit at Oregon State was that slot wide out. 543 00:26:36,720 --> 00:26:40,000 Speaker 4: You know, perhaps they promote Lakwan Treadwell or Coleman owen 544 00:26:40,080 --> 00:26:44,399 Speaker 4: off the practice squad. But again, I probably moved some 545 00:26:44,440 --> 00:26:46,280 Speaker 4: guys around, you know, maybe even you know, Pittman does 546 00:26:46,280 --> 00:26:47,959 Speaker 4: so much dirty work in the middle of the field. 547 00:26:47,960 --> 00:26:50,560 Speaker 4: I see, you know, him maybe getting moved around a 548 00:26:50,600 --> 00:26:53,600 Speaker 4: little bit there. But I don't think you'll have just Hey, 549 00:26:53,720 --> 00:26:56,640 Speaker 4: player A is hurt, so player B slides into that role. 550 00:26:56,680 --> 00:26:58,120 Speaker 4: I think it'll be kind of by committee. 551 00:26:58,160 --> 00:26:59,639 Speaker 1: I'd like to know in the morning show, which you 552 00:26:59,640 --> 00:27:03,280 Speaker 1: guys do the dirty work. Who's the Pittman of the 553 00:27:03,280 --> 00:27:03,840 Speaker 1: morning show? 554 00:27:04,960 --> 00:27:10,560 Speaker 4: Oh boy, that's a great question. Yeah, that's a great question. 555 00:27:10,800 --> 00:27:13,240 Speaker 4: I mean, I part of me would like to say Mark, 556 00:27:13,320 --> 00:27:15,119 Speaker 4: but I mean Mark. You never know when Marx is 557 00:27:15,160 --> 00:27:17,959 Speaker 4: playing animal, I mean Mark aad Mitchell, Mark's playing animal. 558 00:27:18,040 --> 00:27:19,800 Speaker 4: Sounds you just I mean, you never even know what 559 00:27:19,840 --> 00:27:21,720 Speaker 4: you're gonna get from Mark. You know, one minute, all 560 00:27:21,720 --> 00:27:23,880 Speaker 4: of a sudden, he's on a Bears ran. 561 00:27:23,960 --> 00:27:26,720 Speaker 1: The next minute, Mark's kind of like Anthony Richardson because 562 00:27:26,720 --> 00:27:29,000 Speaker 1: every time I turn around, he's out for the week. Right. 563 00:27:29,760 --> 00:27:32,600 Speaker 4: Oh boy, that's excellent that that Maybe that might be 564 00:27:32,640 --> 00:27:33,680 Speaker 4: your best work of all time. 565 00:27:34,080 --> 00:27:35,160 Speaker 1: That's tremendous. 566 00:27:35,359 --> 00:27:38,399 Speaker 4: I know, yeah, I think, thank you, Yes, thank you 567 00:27:38,440 --> 00:27:41,320 Speaker 4: Corman for that. You know, I said that Caleb today. 568 00:27:41,400 --> 00:27:43,320 Speaker 4: Caleb Zuber did a great job filling in for Mark 569 00:27:43,359 --> 00:27:44,960 Speaker 4: all week long, and you know, I kind of thank 570 00:27:45,040 --> 00:27:46,919 Speaker 4: Caleb in the final sigma of the show today and 571 00:27:46,960 --> 00:27:49,639 Speaker 4: I said, you know, I I thank you, but I'm 572 00:27:49,680 --> 00:27:51,280 Speaker 4: sure we'll see you again because I think Mark has 573 00:27:51,280 --> 00:27:53,480 Speaker 4: thirteen more vacation basically now and Thanksgiving. 574 00:27:55,200 --> 00:27:59,880 Speaker 1: You're not You're not kidding, man. You know the it's 575 00:28:00,040 --> 00:28:04,320 Speaker 1: interesting Kevin when you look at Kurt Signetti and the 576 00:28:04,400 --> 00:28:06,480 Speaker 1: fact that you know, we just talked about it with 577 00:28:06,520 --> 00:28:08,879 Speaker 1: Jeff rab John's But I'm just gonna go conventionally or 578 00:28:08,960 --> 00:28:12,000 Speaker 1: generically speaking, years from now, we'll look back and say, 579 00:28:12,080 --> 00:28:14,440 Speaker 1: Penn State made Kurt Signetti a lot of money because 580 00:28:14,440 --> 00:28:16,719 Speaker 1: the timing was perfect to go ahead and lock him in. 581 00:28:17,320 --> 00:28:19,800 Speaker 1: Is Ady Mitchell making Alec Pierce a lot of money? 582 00:28:25,000 --> 00:28:27,720 Speaker 4: Maybe more money in Indy? I think Alec Pierce is 583 00:28:27,720 --> 00:28:29,080 Speaker 4: going That's what I mean money. 584 00:28:29,040 --> 00:28:31,920 Speaker 1: That's what I mean. In other words, Alec Pierce is 585 00:28:31,960 --> 00:28:34,800 Speaker 1: a guy, and Alec Pierce deserves credit because Alec Pierce 586 00:28:34,840 --> 00:28:37,760 Speaker 1: has shown a versatility as a receiver that we had 587 00:28:37,800 --> 00:28:40,040 Speaker 1: not previously seen. Maybe Daniel Jones has something to do 588 00:28:40,080 --> 00:28:43,680 Speaker 1: with that as well. But if there was going to 589 00:28:43,680 --> 00:28:45,880 Speaker 1: be a passing of the torch of hey, we've got 590 00:28:46,080 --> 00:28:48,880 Speaker 1: a deep ball guy or an in space guy in 591 00:28:49,000 --> 00:28:52,120 Speaker 1: Ady Mitchell, So what do you bringing to the table 592 00:28:52,120 --> 00:28:54,600 Speaker 1: and negotiation, I don't know that the Colts can say that, right. 593 00:28:55,840 --> 00:28:58,720 Speaker 4: Yeah, it's definitely a great point you bring up. I mean, 594 00:28:58,920 --> 00:29:00,479 Speaker 4: I'd have to take a closer look at the free 595 00:29:00,520 --> 00:29:03,440 Speaker 4: agent list for next year. I want to say, you know, 596 00:29:03,520 --> 00:29:06,480 Speaker 4: maybe you let Brayden Smith walk. It does seem like 597 00:29:06,480 --> 00:29:09,840 Speaker 4: they're intrigued by Jalen Travis, their fourth round pick out 598 00:29:09,880 --> 00:29:14,240 Speaker 4: of Iowa State, who's got into some jumbo packages last week. 599 00:29:14,360 --> 00:29:16,360 Speaker 4: You know, at some point you got to pass the torch. 600 00:29:16,760 --> 00:29:19,000 Speaker 4: You know, they obviously passed it with Will Fries to 601 00:29:19,120 --> 00:29:21,840 Speaker 4: Mac Gonzalez and Ryan Kelly to Tanner Bordolini. You know, 602 00:29:22,320 --> 00:29:24,560 Speaker 4: pretty much each year, let's say you have four marquee 603 00:29:24,560 --> 00:29:26,960 Speaker 4: free agents, five marquee free agents, you got to pass it, 604 00:29:27,080 --> 00:29:29,440 Speaker 4: especially if you're going to pay a quarterback. So where 605 00:29:29,440 --> 00:29:31,240 Speaker 4: are they going to do that again? 606 00:29:31,360 --> 00:29:31,680 Speaker 2: Pierce? 607 00:29:31,720 --> 00:29:33,440 Speaker 4: I think is going to be in high demand from 608 00:29:33,440 --> 00:29:38,719 Speaker 4: around the NFL. So yes, I would think that, you know, 609 00:29:38,760 --> 00:29:41,800 Speaker 4: he maybe indeed views it as Hey, we need to 610 00:29:41,880 --> 00:29:44,960 Speaker 4: up this price. And let's be honest. Shane Styton clearly 611 00:29:45,040 --> 00:29:48,160 Speaker 4: has had eighty Mitchell issues and you know, assuming that 612 00:29:48,240 --> 00:29:51,160 Speaker 4: everyone is back again next year, you know, GM and 613 00:29:51,240 --> 00:29:54,600 Speaker 4: head coach, I think that matters. You know, we're curious 614 00:29:54,600 --> 00:29:57,360 Speaker 4: two weeks ago, what would Shane Siken's punishment be for 615 00:29:57,440 --> 00:30:00,240 Speaker 4: Ady Mitchell. Would it just be hey, speaking front of 616 00:30:00,280 --> 00:30:03,520 Speaker 4: the team on a Monday, apologize and let's move on. Well, no, 617 00:30:03,680 --> 00:30:06,520 Speaker 4: it wasn't that. It was you know, pretty much bend 618 00:30:06,640 --> 00:30:09,240 Speaker 4: some week one probably wanted to keep him inactive until 619 00:30:09,280 --> 00:30:13,000 Speaker 4: Pier Scott hurt and then obviously he was a healthy 620 00:30:13,000 --> 00:30:16,720 Speaker 4: scratch last week. So we'll see if Mitchell can change 621 00:30:16,760 --> 00:30:18,320 Speaker 4: that over the final eleven games. 622 00:30:18,520 --> 00:30:20,360 Speaker 1: When I look Kevin, a lot of people have asked 623 00:30:20,360 --> 00:30:22,240 Speaker 1: me this. Kevin Bowen is our guest. He's on the 624 00:30:22,280 --> 00:30:25,200 Speaker 1: Java House, Peel and Port guest line Jake twenty five. 625 00:30:25,240 --> 00:30:27,080 Speaker 1: By the way, the discount code for twenty five percent 626 00:30:27,120 --> 00:30:30,440 Speaker 1: off from Java House Kevin. The several people have asked 627 00:30:30,480 --> 00:30:34,400 Speaker 1: me this, and admittedly I mental hurdle on the last name. 628 00:30:34,440 --> 00:30:36,880 Speaker 1: That does not make me unique. But the Colts rookie JT. 629 00:30:37,320 --> 00:30:41,560 Speaker 1: Defensive lineman or defensive end specifically that just has not 630 00:30:41,640 --> 00:30:44,600 Speaker 1: been able to crack rotation yet. Maybe I'd know the 631 00:30:44,680 --> 00:30:48,120 Speaker 1: last name and have more fluidity in saying it if 632 00:30:48,160 --> 00:30:50,520 Speaker 1: there was reason to have done so. At this point. 633 00:30:50,720 --> 00:30:53,120 Speaker 1: What is holding back there is that because of who 634 00:30:53,160 --> 00:30:55,120 Speaker 1: was in front of him, or he just has not 635 00:30:55,160 --> 00:30:56,240 Speaker 1: been able to make a step. 636 00:30:57,440 --> 00:31:01,080 Speaker 4: Yeah, JT two Yimalowau. I look at it in a 637 00:31:01,080 --> 00:31:05,160 Speaker 4: couple of different ways. What the Colts would tell you is, hey, 638 00:31:05,200 --> 00:31:08,920 Speaker 4: he's our fifth defensive end. Let's start there. So when healthy, 639 00:31:08,960 --> 00:31:12,320 Speaker 4: that would be Quitty pay Laatu Latsu Sampson epucon Taekwon 640 00:31:12,400 --> 00:31:14,600 Speaker 4: lewis supposed to be the four above him. And the 641 00:31:14,600 --> 00:31:17,400 Speaker 4: Colts would say, hey, when we play the run heavy teams, 642 00:31:17,480 --> 00:31:20,640 Speaker 4: we want an extra defensive tackle to be dressing on 643 00:31:20,720 --> 00:31:23,640 Speaker 4: game days, so that therefore we'll have five of those 644 00:31:23,720 --> 00:31:26,440 Speaker 4: and only four defensive ends. That's when you see him 645 00:31:26,480 --> 00:31:30,560 Speaker 4: being inactive, and then you know, when you play the 646 00:31:30,600 --> 00:31:34,760 Speaker 4: past happy teams, then you would dress him as the 647 00:31:34,800 --> 00:31:39,680 Speaker 4: fifth defensive end. Now, I think a little bit certainly 648 00:31:39,680 --> 00:31:42,720 Speaker 4: has to do with you're not getting enough from him, 649 00:31:42,760 --> 00:31:44,680 Speaker 4: because I don't think you're getting enough from the guys 650 00:31:44,720 --> 00:31:48,680 Speaker 4: above him on the depth chart to warrant necessarily you 651 00:31:49,360 --> 00:31:52,480 Speaker 4: dressing them. So you know, to me, this is such 652 00:31:52,480 --> 00:31:56,760 Speaker 4: a big storyline for Sunday. The Chargers frankly, are in 653 00:31:56,920 --> 00:31:59,520 Speaker 4: one of the more dire situations at offensive tackle I've 654 00:31:59,520 --> 00:32:03,040 Speaker 4: ever seen NFL team, No kidding, they are. Starting Last 655 00:32:03,040 --> 00:32:05,920 Speaker 4: week they started their fifth and sixth offensive tackle. I 656 00:32:06,240 --> 00:32:08,120 Speaker 4: can't even tell. I don't even I don't even think 657 00:32:08,160 --> 00:32:11,040 Speaker 4: the Colts have a sixth offensive tackle on their practice squad. 658 00:32:11,040 --> 00:32:13,560 Speaker 4: To be honest with you, this week, maybe it looks 659 00:32:13,560 --> 00:32:15,840 Speaker 4: like it's gonna upgrade the fourth and fifth assuming Joe 660 00:32:15,880 --> 00:32:19,800 Speaker 4: Aalt doesn't play. So you know, we're talking about a 661 00:32:19,800 --> 00:32:22,280 Speaker 4: cold sea line room that has three first round picks, 662 00:32:22,680 --> 00:32:25,680 Speaker 4: two second round picks, two third round picks, the fourth 663 00:32:25,680 --> 00:32:30,120 Speaker 4: and fifth. I mean, they're all highly, highly invested, resourced 664 00:32:30,120 --> 00:32:33,840 Speaker 4: individuals in that room. You better show up. And I 665 00:32:33,880 --> 00:32:37,560 Speaker 4: think that is a massive, massive key for Sunday. 666 00:32:37,840 --> 00:32:43,040 Speaker 1: Yeah, Kevin, Kevin Bowen, our guest. The the defensive line itself. 667 00:32:43,320 --> 00:32:47,120 Speaker 1: And it's interesting because I was talking earlier this week 668 00:32:47,480 --> 00:32:52,200 Speaker 1: the Chargers, Okay, they are right now, they are really struggling. 669 00:32:52,200 --> 00:32:55,000 Speaker 1: Obviously a protecting justin Herbert. I mean, I come, I 670 00:32:55,040 --> 00:32:57,160 Speaker 1: totally get it, and and the Colts on the other 671 00:32:57,240 --> 00:32:59,960 Speaker 1: side have done a remarkable job of protecting Daniel Jones. 672 00:33:00,080 --> 00:33:02,440 Speaker 1: More on that in a second. But in terms of 673 00:33:02,480 --> 00:33:05,320 Speaker 1: the pass rush for Indianapolis, where would you grade it 674 00:33:05,360 --> 00:33:06,440 Speaker 1: at this point? 675 00:33:08,280 --> 00:33:08,440 Speaker 3: Uh? 676 00:33:09,680 --> 00:33:13,160 Speaker 4: D plus, maybe C minus. You know, I want to 677 00:33:13,200 --> 00:33:16,040 Speaker 4: be a generous grad which Lord knows you could have 678 00:33:16,120 --> 00:33:17,880 Speaker 4: used a few of those back in the day, particularly 679 00:33:17,920 --> 00:33:23,680 Speaker 4: at Kansas. Yeah, I again, Jake, I'll go off like 680 00:33:23,760 --> 00:33:26,600 Speaker 4: what you've invested. I mean, you have put so much 681 00:33:26,800 --> 00:33:29,400 Speaker 4: into that room. I want to say you're the top five, 682 00:33:29,720 --> 00:33:32,800 Speaker 4: top three highest paid defensive line rooms. So I'm not 683 00:33:32,840 --> 00:33:35,280 Speaker 4: even talking where they were drafted, you know, based off 684 00:33:35,280 --> 00:33:37,960 Speaker 4: what they've done in their career, second contract, third contract. 685 00:33:37,960 --> 00:33:40,840 Speaker 4: For a few of those guys, you are paying them 686 00:33:40,880 --> 00:33:43,160 Speaker 4: and have invested into that room for it to be elite, 687 00:33:43,760 --> 00:33:45,200 Speaker 4: and so I think that matters. I think you are 688 00:33:45,240 --> 00:33:47,360 Speaker 4: grading on a scale when it comes to that. So, 689 00:33:48,200 --> 00:33:52,120 Speaker 4: I mean, on paper, this is varsity versus freshman, your 690 00:33:52,200 --> 00:33:56,240 Speaker 4: D line versus their O line, particularly at tackle. You know, 691 00:33:56,960 --> 00:33:59,720 Speaker 4: coming on Sunday, the question is, you know, will it 692 00:34:00,120 --> 00:34:01,920 Speaker 4: out in that manner? I mean if anybody wats the 693 00:34:01,960 --> 00:34:04,200 Speaker 4: end of that Chargers game and look at what Herbert 694 00:34:04,240 --> 00:34:06,000 Speaker 4: had to do on the final drive. I mean he 695 00:34:06,080 --> 00:34:11,200 Speaker 4: is getting just I mean under siege from Miami's defensive 696 00:34:11,200 --> 00:34:14,080 Speaker 4: line and he makes you know, Houdini like plays to 697 00:34:14,120 --> 00:34:16,920 Speaker 4: save the game that'll be up for the Colts. You know, 698 00:34:17,000 --> 00:34:19,759 Speaker 4: can you get to him and then obviously get him 699 00:34:19,800 --> 00:34:22,840 Speaker 4: down because just getting to him is not enough given 700 00:34:22,880 --> 00:34:25,520 Speaker 4: how you know, great of a escaper, he can be. 701 00:34:25,680 --> 00:34:30,640 Speaker 1: Kevin when you look though at and there are areas 702 00:34:30,680 --> 00:34:33,800 Speaker 1: where I will give Chris Ballard a lot of credit 703 00:34:34,040 --> 00:34:37,400 Speaker 1: because we either harped on him to address something and 704 00:34:37,440 --> 00:34:41,279 Speaker 1: then he did and did so now we're seeing you know, 705 00:34:41,520 --> 00:34:44,960 Speaker 1: their results in that. And then there are other areas 706 00:34:44,960 --> 00:34:48,520 Speaker 1: where he has been proactive in addressing it but it's 707 00:34:48,560 --> 00:34:50,640 Speaker 1: never taken off. And pass rush is one of those. 708 00:34:50,719 --> 00:34:53,880 Speaker 1: It's like just repeated each year. It seems as though 709 00:34:54,280 --> 00:34:56,640 Speaker 1: there's the next guy that's gonna be the guy. Okay? 710 00:34:57,200 --> 00:35:00,520 Speaker 1: Is that does that speak more to the difficult in 711 00:35:00,560 --> 00:35:04,959 Speaker 1: the NFL of finding edge rushers or is it more 712 00:35:05,000 --> 00:35:08,640 Speaker 1: so just an area that has been a vapor lock 713 00:35:08,719 --> 00:35:09,560 Speaker 1: for Chris Ballard? 714 00:35:11,880 --> 00:35:13,200 Speaker 4: Yeah? I mean I would say if you made me 715 00:35:13,200 --> 00:35:15,720 Speaker 4: pick one or the other, I would say the ladder. 716 00:35:15,760 --> 00:35:18,279 Speaker 4: I don't want to act like finding edge rushers is 717 00:35:18,280 --> 00:35:21,920 Speaker 4: a slam dunk by any means. But you know, if 718 00:35:21,960 --> 00:35:24,120 Speaker 4: you go back and trail bash them. Was a third 719 00:35:24,200 --> 00:35:27,080 Speaker 4: round pick, and you know what's his name, the kid 720 00:35:27,120 --> 00:35:29,920 Speaker 4: from Rutgers, Komoko Turre was a second round pick. And 721 00:35:29,960 --> 00:35:33,000 Speaker 4: then you know Ben Bannago was a second round pick. 722 00:35:33,120 --> 00:35:35,800 Speaker 4: And you know, Taekwon Lews has been a nice player, 723 00:35:35,880 --> 00:35:37,759 Speaker 4: so I don't know if you group him in there, 724 00:35:37,760 --> 00:35:40,160 Speaker 4: but you know, Quity Pay a first rounder, dioa Dango 725 00:35:40,280 --> 00:35:45,160 Speaker 4: second rounder. Again, there's just been a lot of drafted investments, 726 00:35:45,200 --> 00:35:47,080 Speaker 4: and you know Quitty for example, kind of one of 727 00:35:47,080 --> 00:35:50,480 Speaker 4: those ones where all right, Chris explain this to us. 728 00:35:50,600 --> 00:35:54,840 Speaker 4: You know, Michigan, he really didn't put up prominent sack numbers. 729 00:35:55,520 --> 00:35:59,200 Speaker 4: They were banking on man that size and that ability 730 00:35:59,280 --> 00:36:01,719 Speaker 4: to do this three cone drill and that test. We 731 00:36:01,800 --> 00:36:04,279 Speaker 4: think it'll lead to more. And you know, I would 732 00:36:04,280 --> 00:36:07,279 Speaker 4: say from a pressure standpoint, it hasn't. You know, now 733 00:36:07,320 --> 00:36:10,480 Speaker 4: in year five of his career, now quit, he's done 734 00:36:10,480 --> 00:36:12,080 Speaker 4: more than you know, some of those other guys that 735 00:36:12,080 --> 00:36:15,080 Speaker 4: I mentioned. Certainly some of those early draft picks there. 736 00:36:15,120 --> 00:36:17,800 Speaker 4: So yeah, again, I don't want to act like you 737 00:36:17,920 --> 00:36:20,120 Speaker 4: just draft one and it's a slam dunk lock that 738 00:36:20,680 --> 00:36:22,920 Speaker 4: you figured it out, but you know, to draft whatever 739 00:36:23,080 --> 00:36:25,759 Speaker 4: five six in the first three rounds and to really, 740 00:36:25,920 --> 00:36:29,120 Speaker 4: I mean, none of them have double digit sacks, and 741 00:36:29,640 --> 00:36:31,120 Speaker 4: many of them didn't make it to the end of 742 00:36:31,120 --> 00:36:33,759 Speaker 4: their rookie contracts. Are certainly even debated about getting a 743 00:36:33,800 --> 00:36:34,799 Speaker 4: second contract to them. 744 00:36:34,840 --> 00:36:38,240 Speaker 1: I would say probably the latter Kevin Bowen, our guest 745 00:36:38,440 --> 00:36:41,160 Speaker 1: Kevin this particular game, you know we talked about justin 746 00:36:41,200 --> 00:36:45,239 Speaker 1: Herbert right is there and look I set off the 747 00:36:45,239 --> 00:36:48,360 Speaker 1: top of the show in August. If you would have 748 00:36:48,400 --> 00:36:50,839 Speaker 1: looked at it, the Chargers are one of those games 749 00:36:50,840 --> 00:36:52,160 Speaker 1: that jump out where you like, that's gonna be a 750 00:36:52,160 --> 00:36:54,520 Speaker 1: tough one. Whoever would have guessed that now the Colts 751 00:36:54,560 --> 00:36:57,440 Speaker 1: would go in not only as the team with the 752 00:36:57,440 --> 00:36:59,920 Speaker 1: best record in the AFC, but also some of the 753 00:37:00,160 --> 00:37:02,640 Speaker 1: that we thought would be hanging around, maybe even fading 754 00:37:02,680 --> 00:37:04,719 Speaker 1: a little bit. Some of that's injury, I get it. 755 00:37:05,320 --> 00:37:08,680 Speaker 1: But when you look at the Chargers, aside from the 756 00:37:09,600 --> 00:37:12,160 Speaker 1: tackle situation. We talked to Matt Mouney Smith about that 757 00:37:12,239 --> 00:37:16,600 Speaker 1: yesterday the Voice of the Chargers. What area of susceptibility 758 00:37:16,640 --> 00:37:19,080 Speaker 1: beyond that do you think the Cults are going to 759 00:37:19,160 --> 00:37:22,680 Speaker 1: try to exploit and what area of the Colts specifically 760 00:37:22,719 --> 00:37:24,799 Speaker 1: talked about will be their challenge? 761 00:37:25,600 --> 00:37:28,239 Speaker 4: Yeah, I think they The Charge has been really poor 762 00:37:28,239 --> 00:37:31,120 Speaker 4: stopping the run, especially the last few weeks. Khalil Mack, 763 00:37:31,160 --> 00:37:33,319 Speaker 4: I know, has gotten back to practice. He would be 764 00:37:33,400 --> 00:37:36,839 Speaker 4: a very welcome addition if you are the Chargers, But 765 00:37:36,840 --> 00:37:38,839 Speaker 4: again he's been out about a month, so is one 766 00:37:38,880 --> 00:37:41,160 Speaker 4: week of practice enough for a guy of that age. 767 00:37:41,800 --> 00:37:45,640 Speaker 4: So again, your run game a strength against their run defense, 768 00:37:45,760 --> 00:37:48,680 Speaker 4: not a strength you know, should be advantaged Colts there, 769 00:37:49,840 --> 00:37:51,520 Speaker 4: you know, I would say, then this gets back to 770 00:37:51,560 --> 00:37:54,200 Speaker 4: the past Russ shake. An area that is worrisome is 771 00:37:54,239 --> 00:37:56,160 Speaker 4: I think their overall depth of wide out. You know, 772 00:37:56,200 --> 00:37:58,520 Speaker 4: looks like they're gonna get Quint Johnson back, who's been 773 00:37:58,520 --> 00:38:00,560 Speaker 4: a pretty good whiteout for and they still have Keenan 774 00:38:00,560 --> 00:38:03,680 Speaker 4: Allen who's making plays at his age, and lat McConkie 775 00:38:03,760 --> 00:38:06,680 Speaker 4: has been a really good player in his early NFL career. 776 00:38:06,920 --> 00:38:08,839 Speaker 4: You know, that depth of wide out, I mean those 777 00:38:08,840 --> 00:38:11,319 Speaker 4: are three pretty good dudes. And again, your depth at 778 00:38:11,320 --> 00:38:14,359 Speaker 4: corner is definitely being tested, So I would say that 779 00:38:14,480 --> 00:38:18,120 Speaker 4: is something that falls on the warrisome scale. I don't 780 00:38:18,160 --> 00:38:21,440 Speaker 4: get the sense that the Colts are, you know, overly 781 00:38:21,560 --> 00:38:24,080 Speaker 4: impressed by what the Chargers have done defensively. They've been 782 00:38:24,120 --> 00:38:26,640 Speaker 4: really good in the red zone. But I don't think 783 00:38:26,719 --> 00:38:29,719 Speaker 4: this is like Arizona last week, for example, where they're 784 00:38:29,760 --> 00:38:33,200 Speaker 4: super exotic pre snap and it's gonna take a lot. Now. 785 00:38:33,239 --> 00:38:36,120 Speaker 4: I think the Colts feel like they should be okay there, 786 00:38:36,200 --> 00:38:38,880 Speaker 4: but you know, still, it's been probably more some of 787 00:38:38,880 --> 00:38:41,839 Speaker 4: its parts and how the Chargers have played defensively this year. 788 00:38:42,400 --> 00:38:44,759 Speaker 1: Kevin, who did the who did your son pick? Have 789 00:38:44,800 --> 00:38:45,640 Speaker 1: you done it yet? 790 00:38:46,520 --> 00:38:46,719 Speaker 3: Yeah? 791 00:38:46,760 --> 00:38:48,240 Speaker 4: I haven't posted it yet. 792 00:38:48,480 --> 00:38:51,640 Speaker 1: Okay, tell me this, which charger helmet did you use? 793 00:38:51,800 --> 00:38:54,319 Speaker 1: Because I mean, they're they have kind of a variety, right, 794 00:38:54,360 --> 00:38:56,560 Speaker 1: and they've they've got some fri Yeah, although they seem 795 00:38:56,600 --> 00:38:59,120 Speaker 1: to have kind of settled on, you know, the powder. 796 00:38:59,120 --> 00:39:00,839 Speaker 1: But but but which one did you go with? 797 00:39:01,840 --> 00:39:02,120 Speaker 3: Which? 798 00:39:02,120 --> 00:39:03,520 Speaker 4: I don't know if you've seen what the Rock and 799 00:39:03,600 --> 00:39:06,520 Speaker 4: Sunday shake but the rock and it's called Charger power. 800 00:39:06,640 --> 00:39:07,840 Speaker 4: I believe if I read. 801 00:39:07,680 --> 00:39:15,080 Speaker 1: This, did we lose Kevin? Okay, hold on, we lost 802 00:39:15,120 --> 00:39:17,360 Speaker 1: you for a second there, so Charger power please explain. 803 00:39:18,480 --> 00:39:21,960 Speaker 4: Yeah, I believe it's all gold and then like the 804 00:39:22,000 --> 00:39:25,279 Speaker 4: powder blue socks and or like Herbert, you know, I 805 00:39:25,280 --> 00:39:27,239 Speaker 4: think he's a sleeve guy. I think it'll be like 806 00:39:27,280 --> 00:39:30,600 Speaker 4: a powder blue sleeve for him. I did see at 807 00:39:30,600 --> 00:39:32,880 Speaker 4: one point this year they're going back to the Navies. 808 00:39:32,920 --> 00:39:35,800 Speaker 4: They're going back to Honestly, I think of Billy Vullock 809 00:39:35,800 --> 00:39:37,520 Speaker 4: in that jersey more than I think of anybody else. 810 00:39:37,560 --> 00:39:40,600 Speaker 4: In that jersey shows you how my childhood was. But 811 00:39:42,280 --> 00:39:45,480 Speaker 4: as far as the helmet, it was the white helmet 812 00:39:45,560 --> 00:39:48,120 Speaker 4: with the light. He was very confused. He kept on 813 00:39:48,160 --> 00:39:50,640 Speaker 4: calling him the lightning you know, it's cults against the 814 00:39:50,719 --> 00:39:54,440 Speaker 4: light this week, and I didn't really know how the 815 00:39:54,520 --> 00:39:56,880 Speaker 4: lightning bolt, you know, would he treat it like an animal, 816 00:39:57,320 --> 00:40:02,120 Speaker 4: which usually animals tend to have favoritisms. He tends to 817 00:40:02,120 --> 00:40:03,879 Speaker 4: be on that side of the aisle, so he's one 818 00:40:03,960 --> 00:40:06,799 Speaker 4: five in a row. He was torn on the pick. 819 00:40:06,840 --> 00:40:08,560 Speaker 4: I will very much say that it was not an 820 00:40:08,600 --> 00:40:14,000 Speaker 4: easy pick for him. And yeah, hopefully you know now 821 00:40:14,040 --> 00:40:17,520 Speaker 4: my wife helps me edit the music on these videos. 822 00:40:17,239 --> 00:40:18,920 Speaker 1: And also can you edit out the last one if 823 00:40:18,920 --> 00:40:21,520 Speaker 1: I'm not mistaken had some fecal chat, right, isn't that right? 824 00:40:22,920 --> 00:40:26,399 Speaker 4: Yeah, And I apologize up front. I just think that's 825 00:40:26,400 --> 00:40:28,560 Speaker 4: a state that we're in right now. I just again, 826 00:40:28,920 --> 00:40:30,959 Speaker 4: they say, and I felt this way about Joe Davis 827 00:40:31,000 --> 00:40:33,520 Speaker 4: the other night when cal Raley hit a home run. 828 00:40:33,840 --> 00:40:35,520 Speaker 4: Like when cal Rally hit a home run, it was 829 00:40:35,520 --> 00:40:38,040 Speaker 4: like Joe Davis was waiting to say big dumper, like 830 00:40:38,120 --> 00:40:41,080 Speaker 4: he couldn't. I mean, he couldn't wait to say that. 831 00:40:41,160 --> 00:40:43,680 Speaker 4: And then we all we all laughed. That's the phase 832 00:40:43,760 --> 00:40:46,280 Speaker 4: that my children in right now with the word poop. 833 00:40:46,960 --> 00:40:51,200 Speaker 1: Okay, well so we're back to that. Okay. So now 834 00:40:51,239 --> 00:40:53,360 Speaker 1: here's the thing. I just I feel like there's a 835 00:40:53,400 --> 00:40:56,520 Speaker 1: bias when your son is doing the helmet selections because 836 00:40:56,520 --> 00:40:58,240 Speaker 1: he knows the colt's helmet now right. 837 00:40:59,239 --> 00:41:04,239 Speaker 4: Well yeah, yeah, but wait till you see this one. Yeah. 838 00:41:04,360 --> 00:41:05,800 Speaker 4: I mean, I guess I just kind of tipped my 839 00:41:05,840 --> 00:41:08,359 Speaker 4: hand a little bit there, and you know, we went 840 00:41:08,480 --> 00:41:10,160 Speaker 4: back to you know, some people for a while there 841 00:41:10,200 --> 00:41:13,359 Speaker 4: thought he was right hand dominant, you know, he and 842 00:41:13,400 --> 00:41:16,600 Speaker 4: we keep the home team on the right side. So uh, 843 00:41:16,640 --> 00:41:18,040 Speaker 4: you know, I think we're about to start to get 844 00:41:18,040 --> 00:41:21,680 Speaker 4: into some interesting circumstances. I mean, the more outdoor games, 845 00:41:21,719 --> 00:41:24,080 Speaker 4: you know, a trip to Pittsburgh, a trip to Berlin. 846 00:41:24,280 --> 00:41:26,640 Speaker 4: Of course, we won't go to Berlin for the helmet pick. 847 00:41:26,680 --> 00:41:29,120 Speaker 4: We'll go to our front sidewalk though, and you know 848 00:41:29,160 --> 00:41:31,279 Speaker 4: we'll get outdoors and you know, the elements and the 849 00:41:31,360 --> 00:41:33,920 Speaker 4: leaves and you know, cars driving by. We'll see how 850 00:41:33,960 --> 00:41:35,680 Speaker 4: he reacts. But five in a row is five in 851 00:41:35,680 --> 00:41:38,720 Speaker 4: a row. So it's hard to argue against his success 852 00:41:38,760 --> 00:41:39,080 Speaker 4: so far. 853 00:41:39,239 --> 00:41:41,960 Speaker 1: All right, I'm looking, by the way, in conclusion here 854 00:41:42,080 --> 00:41:44,759 Speaker 1: at the you said, charger power is what it is, right, 855 00:41:45,480 --> 00:41:49,799 Speaker 1: the charger power, It's like it kind of looks like, 856 00:41:49,960 --> 00:41:52,680 Speaker 1: you know, to be honest with you, they look very 857 00:41:52,719 --> 00:41:54,600 Speaker 1: similar to and I can't papoo this.

Look? 865 00:42:16,800 --> 00:42:19,799 Speaker 1: They're the same colors as the Charger power look here. 866 00:42:21,800 --> 00:42:27,440 Speaker 4: Oh boy, yeah, I mean yeah, yeah, I'll leave that 867 00:42:27,520 --> 00:42:31,680 Speaker 4: up to Shannon.
